DescriptionNVD

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

usb: renesas_usbhs: fix use-after-free in ISR during device removal

In usbhs_remove(), the driver frees resources (including the pipe array) while the interrupt handler (usbhs_interrupt) is still registered. If an interrupt fires after usbhs_pipe_remove() but before the driver is fully unbound, the ISR may access freed memory, causing a use-after-free.

Fix this by calling devm_free_irq() before freeing resources. This ensures the interrupt handler is both disabled and synchronized (waits for any running ISR to complete) before usbhs_pipe_remove() is called.

AnalysisAI

Use-after-free in the Linux kernel's Renesas USB host (renesas_usbhs) driver allows a local low-privileged attacker to potentially corrupt memory or escalate privileges during device removal. The flaw stems from the interrupt handler remaining registered while driver resources, including the pipe array, are freed in usbhs_remove(), creating a race window where the ISR can dereference freed memory. …
